I had a similar problem on my laptop (Acer 340T using Trident CyberBlade) with XFree86 4.1.0. Switching back to X from console, or waking up from suspend, caused the screen to "bloom", which I believe is a symptom of improper sync timings. The problem went away when I upgraded to 4.2.0. -- Thatcher Ulrich http://tulrich.com
